Apparently Sequoia includes user space file system support, as now used for the MSDOS file system in macOS. Is it ready to use yet?
macOS 15
This weekend we’re in the Lake District. Wouldn’t it have been simpler if, rather than preparing a notebook, all I needed was a VM with all my apps pre-installed and ready to go?
Sequoia’s macOS VMs and Apple ID, USB storage and other devices, number of concurrent VMs, nested virtualisation, and how to run Sequoia beta in a VM on Sonoma.
It’s over 10 years since Apple stopped providing documentation such as programming guides. Some of the consequences on concurrency, virtualisation, AI and SwiftUI are considered here.
T1 and T2 chips in Intel Macs, integral in M-series chips, used in Sequoia’s virtual machines at last, and an essential feature in Private Cloud Compute.
How we have gone from spell-checking, through optical character recognition, to Sequoia’s new Writing Tools that can proofread and summarise text.
These fix auto-updates, and extend SilentKnight’s Help to cover Apple silicon security. Compatible with Sequoia.
Which Macs will run Sequoia, and which are stuck on older macOS? Are there any new emoji, and what about ChatGPT?
When will we learn about macOS 15? What important changes will it bring? When will the public beta be available? Will there be any new Macs?
Swift 6 is the first major version for 5 years, and features structured concurrency that will change software for macOS over the coming years.
